Walmart, Kroger are part of expanded produce recall

Products have been distributed to 13 states

Produce supplier Wiers Farm Inc., based in Willard, Ohio, has expanded its vegetable recall out of an abundance of caution due to a possible Listeria monocytogenes contamination. 

The Michigan Department of Agriculture initiated the investigation, and the Ohio Department of Agriculture responded with its own examination. 

The expanded recall involves produce that was packed between July 5-12 and distributed to retailers in 13 states, including Walmart, Aldi, Save A Lot, and Kroger. The produce comes in bags but is also sold individually or by the pound. 

So far, no illnesses have been reported.

Back on July 12, Wiers Farm Inc. voluntarily recalled a limited number of whole cucumbers (6 inches to 9 inches in length, 1.5 inches to 2.5 inches in diameter) with a pack date of June 5 and two-pound bagged salad cucumbers with a pack date of June 5 and June 6 because they might be contaminated with Listeria monocytogenes. 

The cucumbers were distributed to Walmart locations in Michigan, Indiana, and Ohio.
